At UPH, students learn to contribute to improving urban health by addressing issues such as HIV, substance abuse, violence, asthma, obesity, nutrition, heart disease, and cancer.

UPH is located at the Hunter College Silberman campus, 2180 Third Avenue (at 119th St.) in East Harlem, where we share Hunter's modern "green" building with the Silberman School of Social Work. Faculty and students work with local and regional community organizations as well as health and social service agencies to strengthen existing and create new approaches to improving the well-being of communities.
